Product requirements (PRD)

A one-pager PRD frame: problem, goals, requirements and non-goals.

How to use it

Half of a PRD defines what to build. The other half defines what not to build. Explicit non-goals keep the discussion from sprawling.

Write requirements as verifiable sentences. A requirement without a success metric cannot be evaluated after launch.

How it opens in the editor

Open the template and this skeleton lands in the editor, with Cite, Paper and File ready in the toolbar.
